REFEREE Mike Jones has been chosen to officiate Tottenham’s Premier League clash with Everton on Saturday evening.

The 47-year-old will oversee his third top-flight game of the campaign when European challengers Spurs face the Toffees at White Hart Lane (KO 5:30pm, live on Sky Sports 1).

He will be assisted in north London by experienced linesmen Andy Garratt (West Midlands) and Mark Scholes (Buckinghamshire) while the fourth official will be Football League referee Charles Brakespear (Surrey).
